Good afternoon!
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and fun times, wherever you are.
More from Lud … so you know, the Myrtles are the owners of the diner where our hero, Deacon, is employed, and he worked his way up from being a cook to a manager. Enjoy!
—————————————————————————————
To a few folks, I was a working-class man who’d somehow hoodwinked the Myrtles into making me a manager. “What has he ever done to deserve it?” I overheard someone say once. To others, I was “an underachiever” or I had “settled.” I ignored all of them. Most people just wanted to be fed, and were decent, so I focused on that. And Colin had been the great love of my life, who I had met at the diner, too, and accepted me as I was, blue collar and all. I would always have that.
